Storm
Thunder
In my mind
Creates visions
Ones that do linger
Forcing me to escape
Into my own awareness
A place, profound, as is subtle
Yet, to truly understand your fate
One must make sense of their very own soul

 

This is my first attempt at an etheree poem.  Info on how to write one can be found HERE.  Many thanks to Helene Vaillant of Willow Poetry for creating in this form and to Colleen Chesebro for researching and adding this to her weekly poetry challenge.

The gnomes of Netherland

Had a knack for stealing

Once they got into your garden

They’d send flower beds reeling

Sneaked in at midnight

Took whatever they could

Then sneaked out, come morning

Even taking some wood

Til one day they faltered

Caught off guard, you could say

They found it quite awkward

So, in the garden they’d stay

Turned to mere ornaments

To decorate the flowerbeds

These gnomes of Netherland

Are now American, instead
